Expired updates not being cleaned up

Hi,
I've been trying to clean up old expired updates on my SCCM 2012 SP1 server and for whatever reason it seems that the updates files are never actually getting removed.
At first I tried the instructions at
http://blogs.technet.com/b/configmgrteam/archive/2012/04/12/software-update-content-cleanup-in-system-center-2012-configuration-manager.aspx
When I run the script they provide it appears to go thru all the updates but never actually deletes any of them. The script always seems to say found it found an existing folder and then later it says that that it is excluding the same folder because
it is active.
Then I read that SP1 for SCCM 2012 is actually supposed to do the clean up process automatically. But in this case do I need to do anything like expire the updates manually or does SCCM now do that? How can I see what is preventing either
the manual script or the automatic clean up process from actually removing the unneeded files and folders?
And does anything need to be done with superseded updates as well?
Also I've always thought that when you SCCM 2012 to do your updates that you should never go to the WSUS console and do anything but I read
http://blog.coretech.dk/kea/house-of-cardsthe-configmgr-software-update-point-and-wsus/ and he is going the WSUS console and doing a clean up there as well.
Thanks in advance,
Nick

Hi Xin,
In the wsyncmgr.log file I see lots of log entries like this:

So it seems like it might be skipping updates? And then it says it deleted 168 expired updates for example?
But if I look at the drive where all the update packages are stored it hasn't changed size.

Maverick 10.9.5 Software Update not being listed for clients

I have Software Update and Caching enabled on an OSX 10.9.5 machine. It has downloaded the 10.9.5 update, but when I run software update on our client computers, the update isn't being shown. I'm feeling like none of the updates are being shown, not just this one. I've pointed the software update preference file to the server correctly and reset it by deleting it, but nothing has worked. I feel like it's server side. Our other clients that aren't pointed to this server can see the update.
What can I look at on the Server to try and diagnose this problem?
Thanks

Nevermind. The port was wrong in Profile Manager.

Session not being clean up by JRun

My application is using IPlanet WebServer and JRun3.02 Application server. I am having a problem with active session not getting cleaned up by the App Server. When the user goes through the application and finishes the process, I invalidate the session by doing 'session.Invalidate()'. I also have set a 30 minute timeout value in the JRun global.properties file to invalidate the session if the user starts but not finish going through the application. However, the number of active session count in the JRun log doesn't seem to go down. After a few days, I ran out of sessions and the application hungs. I keep a few objects on the session including a pretty big 'pdfObject' that I use to create a PDF document on the fly.
Any idea why JRun not able to clean up the sessions after the 30 minute timeout has passed? Does the fact that I have stored objects on the session preventing JRun from invalidating and cleaning up the session?
Thanks in advance.

Hi afikru
According to the Servlet specification session.invalidate() method should unbind any objects associated with it. However I'm not conversant with JRun application server so I can only provide some pointers here to help you out.
Firstly, try locating some documentation specific to your application server which may throw some light on why this may be happening.
Secondly, I'd suggest running the Server within a Profiling tool so that you can see what objects are being created and how many of those. Try explicitly running the Garbage Collector and see if the sessions come down.
Keep me posted on your progress.
Good Luck!

Obsolete jdb not being cleaned up

Hi,
Setup:
* We are using Oracle NoSQL 1.2.123.
* We have 3 replication groups with 3 replication nodes each.
Problem:
* 2 of the slaves (in 2 different replication groups) occupy much more space in JDB files (10 times more) then all the others. As these are slaves, and writes always go through the master, and all nodes in a replication group have the same data (eventually), I assume that this is stale data that has not been cleaned up by the BDB garbage collection (cleaner threads). Unfortunately the logs do not show anything new (since Dec. last year) and the oldest JDB files are from February.
Questions:
* Any ideas what could have gone wrong?
* What can I do to trigger the cleaners to cleanup the old data? Is that safe to do in production environment and without downtime?
* Is it really safe to assume that the current data in within a replication groups is really the same?
Thank you in advance
Dimo
PS. A thread dump shows 2 cleaner threads that do nothing.

1) The simplest and fastest way to correct the replica node is to restore it from the master node. We will send you instructions for doing this later today.Here are directions for refreshing the data storage files (.jdb files) on a target node. NoSQL DB will automatically refresh the storage files from another node, after we manually stop the target node, delete its storage files, and finally restart it, as described below. Thanks to Linda Lee for these directions.
First, be sure to make a backup.
Suppose you want to remove the storage files from rg1-rn3 and make it refresh its files from rg1-rn1. First check where the storage files for the target replication node are located using the show topology command to the Admin CLI. Start the AdminCLI this way:
    java -jar KVHOME/lib/kvstore.jar runadmin -host <host> -port <port>Find the directory containing the target Replication Node's files.
    kv-> show topology -verbose
    store=mystore numPartitions=100 sequence=108
      dc=[dc1] name=MyDC repFactor=3
      sn=[sn1] dc=dc1 localhost:13100 capacity=1 RUNNING
        [rg1-rn1] RUNNING c:/linda/work/smoke/KVRT1/dirB
                     single-op avg latency=0.0 ms   multi-op avg latency=0.67391676 ms
      sn=[sn2] dc=dc1 localhost:13200 capacity=1 RUNNING
        [rg1-rn2] RUNNING c:/linda/work/smoke/KVRT2/dirA
                  No performance info available
      sn=[sn3] dc=dc1 localhost:13300 capacity=1 RUNNING
        [rg1-rn3] RUNNING c:/linda/work/smoke/KVRT3/dirA
                     single-op avg latency=0.0 ms   multi-op avg latency=0.53694165 ms
      shard=[rg1] num partitions=100
        [rg1-rn1] sn=sn1 haPort=localhost:13111
        [rg1-rn2] sn=sn2 haPort=localhost:13210
        [rg1-rn3] sn=sn3 haPort=localhost:13310
        partitions=1-100In this example, rg1-rn3's storage is located in
    c:/linda/work/smoke/KVRT3/dirAStop the target service using the stop-service command
    kv-> plan stop-service -service rg1-rn3 -waitIn another command shell, remove the files for the target Replication Node
    rm c:/linda/work/smoke/KVRT3/dirA/rg1-rn3/env/*.jdbIn the Admin CLI, restart the service
     plan start-service -service rg1-rn3 -waitThe service will restart, and will populate its missing files from one of the other two nodes in the shard. You can use the "verify" or the "show topology" command to check on he status of the store.

Aq$_tab_p, aq$_tab_d filling and not being cleaned up

Hi all.
I have a simple 1 way streams replication setup (two node) based on examples. Replication seems to be working.
However, the AQ$_TAB_P and AQ$_TAB_D (on the capture side only) tables continue to fill (as well as number of messages in the queue and spilled lcrs in v$buffered_queues). Nothing should be spilling since the only things I'm sending are 1 row updates to a heartbeat table and the streams pools are a few hundred meg.
I have tried aq_tm_process unset, as well as set to 2 and the tables continue to grow.
The MSG_STATE in aq$tab are either DEFERRED or DEFERRED SPILLED. As mentioned all of the heartbeat updates ( as well as small test transactions ) replicate just fine, so the transactions are being captured,propagated and applied.
I am running 10.2.0.2 on solaris 10 with no streams related one off patches to speak of, for reference. My propagation did not specify queue_to_queue.
I'm wondering if there is a step I may have missed, or what else I may be able to look at to ensure that these tables are cleaned up?
Thanks.

Hello
I forgot to mention that you should check v$propagation_receiver on the destination and v$propagation_sender on the source. v$propagation_receiver on the source will not have records unless you are using bi-directional streams.
The aq_tm_processes parameter should be set on all the databases that uses Streams. This parameter is responsible for spawning the number of queue monitor slaves which is actually performing the spilling and removing the spilled messages which are no longer needed.
It is suggested to remove this parameter from spfile, however your SHOW PARAMETER will still show this as 0. Hence you should be checking v$spparameter to confirm whether this was actually removed from it. If you remove it from the spfile, then it should spawn the required number of slaves automatically as per the autotune feature in 10g. However I would always suggest to set this parameter to 1 so that one slave process will be always spawned even if we dont use Streams and SHOW PARAMETER always show this as 1.
If you find the slaves are not spawned, then you should be checking your alert.log to see whether any errors are reported. You need to check the Queue Monitor Coordinator process qmnc is spawned. If qmnc itself is not spawned (by default it should be spawned always), then no q00 slaves will be spawned. If you remove the parameter from spfile and you see that no q00 slaves are spawned eventhough you are using Streams (either capture, prop or apply) then you should log an SR with Oracle Support to investigate this. You can check the qmnc and q00 slaves at the OS level using the following command:
ps -ef | grep $ORACLE_SID | grep [q][m0][n0]
Please mark this thread as answered if all your questions are answered well else let me know.
Thanks,

Old recovery points seems to not being cleaned up

I'm running a Windows Server 2012 server with DPM 2012 SP1, acting as a secondary DPM server for a couple of primary servers. However, the last 5-6 weeks it has begun to behave very strange. Suddenly, I get a lot of "Recovery Point volume threshold
exceeded", "DPM does not have sufficient storage space available on the recovery point volume to create new recovery Points" and "The used disk space on the computer running DPM for the recovery point volume of SQL Server 2008 database
XXXXX\DB(servername.domain.com) has exceeded the threshold value of 90% (DPM accounts 600 MB for internal usage in addition to free space available). If you do not allocate more disk space, synchronization jobs may fail due to insufficient disk space. (ID
3169).
All of these alerts seem to have a common source - disk space of course, but there is currently 8 TB free in the DPM disk pool. However, I have a feeling that all of this started when we added another DPM disk to the storage pool. Could it be that DPM doesn't
clean up expired disk data correctly any longer?

Hi,
If the pruneshadowcopiesdpm201.ps1 is not completing, hangs, or crashes, then that needs to be addressed as that will definitely cause storage usage problems.
In the meantime you can use this powershell script to delete old recovery points to help free disk space. It will prompt to select a datasource, then a date to delete all recovery points made before that time.

Updates not being recognised by CC desktop app

I have Creative Cloud installed on both my MacBook Pro and Mac Pro machines. In both cases the CC desktop app is not recognising when updates have been installed. I update app's when prompted (like Photoshop 14.1) but when I restart either machine, the desktop app tells an update is available that has already been installed. It's getting very annoying. Any ideas?

Hi Darencook2,
Enable root account and try updating again: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1528 . If still the update prompt shows up then follow the mentioned steps:
Navigate to Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers and uninstall all the Adobe softwares.
Go to Library/Application Support/Adobe and rename it to Adobe.old
Go to ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe and rename it to Adobe.old (http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/access-hidden-user-library-files.html).
Go to Applications/Utilities and trash all the Adobe folders.
Restart your machine and download CC desktop: https://creative.adobe.com/products/creative-cloud . Download Photoshop and try updating again.
Please let us know if still the error persists.
Regards,
Romit SInha

CS6 updates not being shown with CC updater

I have updated to CC from the CS6 Cloud but kept the old CS6 aps around just in case I need to open and work with and save out older files, especially with InDesign. I just noticed that the CS6 application updater has two updates but when when I click the menu bar icon (OS X.8) it opens the CC menu bar panel but no updates are shown. I tried manually starting Adobe Application Manager but there is only the CC version still around (apparently it replaces teh CS6 Application Manager altogether). I have no way to even see what the two updates are so I can try to open the apps and look for update options through their menus. Any suggestions?

I understand that. What's occurring though (and I did notice a tweet yesterday demonstrating this as well so it's not just me) is that the old CS6 menu notification icon (the Adobe 'A' with a number to the right) is appearing when there are updates to CC apps. This seems to me to be a bug. Closing the CC Application Manager and restarting it showed 5 CC updates that weren't there before (the cloud icon with the number ot the right). Updating these updated the 2 notifications in the CS6 menu notification icon and made it go away as well as updated the CC notificaiton icon and the number disappeared.

Passivation table ps_txn not being cleaned up

Adf 11gR1PS1
Hello
I have a samll application using one unbounded task flow and one bounded task flow.
Each task flow uses a different application module.
The unbound task flow calls the bounded task flow in a modeless inline-popup via a button.
When running the application and clicking on the button the bounded task flow is called and a new row is inserted
into the ps_txn table.
However when the inline-popup is closed via the "x" on the popup window the row is not removed from the ps_txn table.
If the button is clicked again a new row is added to the theps_txn table.
Is this the normal behaviour, looking at 40.5.3 in the Dev Guide it would seem that the record should be deleted or reused.
I understand that there are scripts for cleaning up the table but shouldn't it be automatic ?
What am I missing ?
Regards
Paul

Hi Paul,
Do you use the failover (jbo.dofailover) ?
If not, I would expect records to be deleted from PS_TXN at activation.
I tested with the ADF BC Component Browser, selecting menus Save/Restore Transaction State, with jbo.debugoutput=console:
[277] (0) OraclePersistManager.deleteAll(2126) **deleteAll** collid=17461
[278] (0) OraclePersistManager.deleteAll(2140) stmt: delete "PS_TXN" where collid=:1
[279] (0) OraclePersistManager.commit(217) **commit** #pending ops=1But I also already noticed orphaned records in the table.
Do you use jbo.internal_connection to use the same connection whatever the AM instance that's passivated/activated or do you have an instance of the PS_TXN table in all AM's connections ?
Regards,
Didier.

Memory optimized DLLs not being cleaned up

Hi,
From BOL, my understanding is that DBAs do not need to administer DLLs created for memory optimized tables, or natively compiled stored procedures, as they are recompiled automatically, when the SQL Server service starts and are removed when no longer needed.
But I am witnessing, that even after a memory optimized table has been dropped, and the service restarted, the DLLs still exist in the file system AND are still loaded into SQL memory and attached to the process. This can be witnessed by the fact that they
are still visible in sys_dm_os_loaded_modules, and are locked in the file system if you try to delete them, whilst the SQL Service is running.
Is this a bug? Or are they cleaned up at a later date? If at a later date, what triggers the clean-up, if it isn't an instance restart?
Pete

Most likely the DLLs are still needed during DB recovery, as there are still remnants of the tables in the checkpoint files. A couple of cycle of checkpoints and log truncation (e.g., by doing log backup) need to happen to clean up the old checkpoint
files and remove the remnants of the dropped tables from disk.
The following blog post details all the state transitions a checkpoint file goes through:

App updates not being displayed 10.8.4

I am using a 2012 MacBook Pro with Mountain Lion 10.8.4 and my app store is not displaying when I have apps I need to update. I have to search all my apps in the searchbar and click on them to see if they need updating. This is very frustrating as I have lots of apps.

Firmware updates not being installed

Hey,
I have a Mid-2012 MacbookAir with all the latest software updates. There are only three firmware updates that always show up over and over again after I've installed them. I've tried everything but the firmware just won't get updated.
Updates:
Macbook Air SMC Firmware Update 1.9
Thunderbolt Firmware Update 1.2
Macbook Air Flash Storage Firmware Update 1.1
What I've tried:
Reset SMC
Fix drive and drive permissions in recovery mode
Install updates manually from apple.com in safe-mode
Delete contents of /system/library/firmware updates/ folder
Yes the charger has been connected to the computer while updating. I have never used FileVault so it's not on. My computer is working fine, but I'd like to have these updates installed because they fix some serious problems that might eventually break my computer or erase all my data if left unfixed. On top of that I can't install Mavericks until I have Flash Storage Firmware 1.1 update installed.
Does anyone have any ideas what to do next?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
Back up all data. Quit the App Store application if it’s running. Test after each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
Step 1
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/Updates
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder selected. Move the contents of the selected folder to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
Step 2
Do as in Step 1 with this line:
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist
If there's no change, quit the App Store and restore the file you moved from your backup, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Otherwise, recreate your settings in the Software Update preference pane.
Step 3
Hold down the option key and select
Go ▹ Library
from the Finder menu bar. Move the following items from the Library folder to the Trash (some may not exist):
Caches/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate
Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist
Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.*.plist
Saved Application State/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.savedState
Here, "*" stand for a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes.
Step 4
If you still have problems, quit the App Store again.
Select this line and copy it to the Clipboard:
open $TMPDIR../C
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window. Depending on which web browser you use, you may have to press the return key. A folder should open. Inside that folder, there may be a subfolder with the name "com.apple.SoftwareUpdate". If so, delete it. You can then quit Terminal.
